Picking up where Guardian Medical Essentials left off, GME II will continue to provide you instruction on critical trauma care after a violent altercation. Previously learned skills will be revisited in order to reinforce these skills and continue beyond them. Building a robust medical assessment, with associated interventions, will be the main topic of this course. Large portions of this course will be dedicated to hands-on skills stations, interventions of unusual wound modality and an emphasis on improvised interventions when commercial medical equipment is not available.
During the afternoon we will apply previously learned skills in scenario-based training with realistic and relevant situations that will test your ability to handle a traumatic crisis.
